Bexley Healthy Ride to Midhurst & Martens Grove

Ride is now only about 9 miles long. (I've revised route since first posting but LetsRide website doesn't allow easy editing). There are some short steep hills and one long drag uphill. If conditions remain dry will include 7 min loop partly on packed gravel NOT tarmac I rode full route with 700x23 tyres, so should be OK for road bikes. It's easy for individuals to opt out of that section via detour.

Easy paced 2hr Healthy Social ride

Novel ride mostly down and up slopes around the southern and eastern parts of Bexleyheath. Initially towards Bexley village, then possible circuit of Bexleyheath Town Centre and towards Barnehurst, visiting Martens Grove. Return stage includes views over Hall Place and relatively flat finish. Long descents and a few short climbs - we wait for everyone. Robert leading - up to 12 miles.
